Matthew7:21
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Some that say unto Christ, Lord, Lord, shall be saved, being the true Disciples of Christ, but every one that owneth Christ by an external Profession, as his Lord, every one that prayeth tho he doth it often, and with some appearing Zeal and importunity shall not be saved; nor doth by it approve himself a true Disciple of Christ, but he alone who doth indeavour to fulfil the whole Will of God, both by Faith and Holiness, Rom▪ 2.13. 1 Thes. 4. Iam. 1.22.23. 3. True Religion lyes in Obedience to the whole Will of God.
